Prostap - still bleeding

I had my second Prostap injection two weeks ago. I’m still getting pain, fatigue and bleeding.

How long will it take for the Prostap to work? Does it not work for some people?

What could the next option be if Prostap doesn’t work?

I’m sorry. I’m in the same position. I am on my third decapeptyl and have had two periods since I started it.

I’ve seen my consultant and he said these drugs don’t work for 5-10%.

What’s next? Not sure... he seemed to think trying a different injection.

I bled for some time on the Prostap injections. I had 8 before having another op. I saw 3 consultants during the 8 months and they all had their own opinions about being on the injections for various amount of time. Hope you find some relief soon x
